Hers was a life well- lived. She loved music and especial- ly loved to sing. She loved uncon- Laura Mullins d i t i o n a l l y, laughed at herself (and there was plenty to laugh at) and let anyone win when they were playing games. Her home and heart were always open to people and there was always room at the table for surprise dinner guests. Her smile was infectious, put- ting anyone at ease. When she was widowed after 59 years of marriage to Earl Preston, she never gave up on living. At age 82, she fell in love again and married Melvin Mullins, who loved and tender- ly cared for her until she went into the arms of her savior. With all her heart she wanted people to know her Jesus. She loved Him with her whole being and served Him faithful- ly her whole life. Wherever she lived, she became a vital mem- ber of her church. In retire- ment, she and Earl served with Mobile Missionary Assistance Program (MMAP), working on over 120 construction projects throughout the country. She is survived by two daughters, four grandchildren and five great-grandchildren. There will be much rejoicing of her life and legacy on Friday, June 10, at 10 a.m., at Florence Church of the Nazarene, 1536 12th St. Please make any donations in her name to Florence Church of the Nazarene.
